Gift for boyfriend's dad in hospital?

Question

i was looking around and most of the questions here are about best friends in the hospital, people who were near death, and expectant mothers, but my question is a little different. i have been with my boyfriend for 4 years and his dad just had back surgery on a bulged disc. i am going with his family to visit him in the hospital this afternoon and was wondering what a good gift would be for him? i already am planning on getting a get well card but should i get anything else?

Answer 1

Maybe just a goody bag since hospital food sucks.

Men's health magazine,

Gummy bears, beef jerky

Possible a silly little handheld game (for 5 bucks at target, like Family Fued)

He'll surely get bored with the tv and the food.  I think this would be a cheap goody selection..

Answer 2

get a good well card and ask your bf what he really likes then get it fot him!

Answer 3

Honestly a card is enough. But if you feel like getting him something, maybe a food item that he likes (ex. banana pudding or pizza). The hospital food is never good and he would prob appreciate that.  

Answer 4

Get Well card is good choice.... Carryon

Answer 5

If he likes coffee get him a nice coffee cup and then put some peppermints and other candy he likes inside and maybe tie a balloon on it or just attach the card with ribbon to the cup. Hope he feels better.
